A New Jersey woman said she won more than $2 million on an Atlantic City slot machine — but the casino isn’t coughing up the dough, leaving the septuagenarian “very anxious” about being unable to help her homeless son.
Roney Beal, 72, claims she hit it big on a Wheel of Fortune slot machine at Bally’s Casino in February, but when she went to collect her winnings, the casino claimed the jackpot was due to a technical glitch and therefore didn’t count, she told The Post Saturday.
…
“What’s the use in playing then?”
After losing $1,000 on various machines that day, Beal revisited the Wheel of Fortune slot machine.
When she gave it another six or seven spins, she said she hit the jackpot.
She said she eventually got the words “wild,” “wild x2” and spin on a diagonal on the slot area of the machine. This entitled her to a free spin on the Wheel of Fortune wheel on the top of the machine.
After spinning, the wheel ended up on the word “Jackpot” with a dollar sign — and she said she heard the words “You’ve won.”
Then, 3-D gold coins came out and a blue light went off, she said.
“And then the people behind me got up and they’re like, ‘oh my god, oh my god.’ This guy says, ‘lady you’re a millionaire. A millionaire,'” she said.
But when she used a call button to summon help, a tilt message popped up, indicating the machine was unplayable due to an error or malfunction.
A Bally’s employee told her she didn’t win before telling her to leave the casino.
I disagree - I think there are informal conspiracies like this all the time because it is so easy to discuss this frankly at dinner with the machine supplier. It is a downfall of the left that, after it has gained a foothold in the establishment, it acts as if the establishment and big business all act in good faith…
Nonetheless, I upvoted because the last clause that you have brought up is smart and I think it should exist.
you lost me there. he’s gone after big business in a bunch of ways that help the average american:
please stop acting like everyone on the left is the same, I’m a bernie guy, but I respect biden’s accomplishments. any single one of these should get your respect, and the load together is pretty fucking impressive especially considering the obstruction on the right, and people on the ‘left’ like Manchin and Sinema.
The establishment is acting in bad faith alteady. The machines themselves are addictive money printers with billions of dollars put into making them as predatory as possible with rules that allow them to void wins that arent built into their margins.
1 whistleblower… just 1 with proof would destroy the entire slot machine industry. They wouldnt do it because it puts the golden goose at risk of having its head cut off.
